Before You Begin
Precautions and Notices
For your own safety, do not operate the controls of the product while driving.
Use this product prudently. The product is intended to be used only as a
navigation aid. It is not for precise measurement of direction, distance,
location or topography.
The calculated route is for reference only. It is the user’s responsibility to
follow the traffic signs and local regulations along the roads.
When you get off the car, do not leave your device on the dashboard that is
subject to direct sunlight. The overheating of the battery can cause
malfunction and/or danger.
GPS is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible
for the performance of GPS. Any change to the GPS system can affect the
accuracy of all GPS equipments.
GPS satellite signals cannot pass through solid materials (except glass). When
you are inside a tunnel or building, GPS positioning is not available.
A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals is needed to determine current GPS
position. Signal reception can be affected by situations such as bad weather or
dense overhead obstacles (e.g. trees and tall buildings).
Other wireless devices in the vehicle might interfere with the reception of
satellite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
v
A car holder is needed when using the device in a car. Be sure to place the
device in an appropriate place, so as not to obstruct the driver’s view, or
deployment of airbags.
Do not mount where the driver’s
field of vision is blocked.
Do not place unsecured
on the dashboard.
Do not mount in front of
airbag panels.
Do not mount in front of an
airbag field of deployment.

the components of your device.
1.1 Performing the Initial Start Up
1. Use a pointed pen to slide the ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
CAUTION: Always leave the ON/OFF switch in the ON position for normal operation.

1.2 Connecting to AC Power and Charging the
Battery
Fully charge the battery before using your device for the first time.
1. Slide and click the connector converter onto the AC adapter.
2. Connect the adapter cable to the bottom of your device.
3. Plug the AC adapter into a wall outlet.
The charge indicator glows amber when charging is in progress. Do not disconnect
your device from AC power until the battery is fully charged, when the charge
indicator turns green. This will take a couple of hours.
NOTE:
When charging the battery for the very first time, you should charge it for at least 8 hours.
Do not immediately turn on your device after connecting the AC adapter to charge a
power-depleted battery. If you need to turn on the device again, wait for at least one
minute.
Depending on your region of purchase, the connector converter may not look exactly the
same as the picture shown.

1.3 Using Your Device in a Vehicle
A car holder and a car charger are supplied with your device.
Using the Car Holder
CAUTION:
Select an appropriate location for the car holder. Never place the holder where the driver’s
field of vision is blocked.
If the car’s windshield is tinted with a reflective coating, an external antenna (optional) may
be needed to route the antenna to the top of the car through a window. When closing the
car window, be careful not to pinch the antenna cable. (Cars with an anti-jam window
design may automatically leave adequate space as needed.)
The car holder consists of a bracket and a flexible window mount. Use the car
holder to fix your device in a vehicle.
1. Assemble the bracket and the window mount.
2. Clean the windshield where you will apply the suction cup.
3. Attach the suction cup firmly to the windshield and press the locking tab to
secure the cup.
4. Carefully fit the device into the bracket.
NOTE: Depending upon the specific model purchased, the car holder supplied with your
device may not look exactly the same as the picture shown.

Connecting the Car Charger
The car charger supplies power to your device when you are using the device in a
car.
CAUTION: To protect your device against sudden surges in current, connect the car charger
only after the car engine has been started.
1. Connect one end of the car charger to the power connector of your device.
2. Connect the other end to the cigarette lighter in the car to power and charge
your device. The indicator on the car charger lights in green to indicate that
power is being supplied to your device.
